Woodson signed his one-year, $10.5 million franchise tender, which creates major cap problems for the Raiders. The Raiders are $15.7 million over the $85.5 million salary cap, not counting the Jerry Porter contract and the future acquisition of wide receiver Randy Moss, who has a $7.25 million salary.

Where did they free up 15.7 mil?

Free up? It says they are that far over. Sounds like cut city to me....

They certainly didn't expect him to sign it..

Crafty move by the Poston's.

It really messes up the Raiders cap..
